I was recently asked if I knew when the first cacheted FDC was made. Not being a collector of same, I am seeking some help.

I think the question refers to the type that is produced specifically for sale.

Anybody know something about this?

Help is appreciated.

George Linn of Linn's Stamp News is considered to be the first person to create a cachet for a First Day Cover. It was for the Warren Harding Memorial Stamp in 1923.
